DISPOSABLE SEALED BODY FLUID RETENTION DEVICE

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a fluid collecting device for collecting fluid such as urine in a laboratory and a pathological analysis center of hospital, and more particularly to a disposable sealed body fluid retention device.

Technical Background

[0002] Urine analysis results can provide information used for predicting diseases of visceral organs and determining the current health conditions of the tested subjects, and therefore are generally employed for testing urine samples from numerous patients, subjects under physical examination, hospitalized subjects and the like in many hospitals and laboratory centers.

[0003] Typically, the tested subjects are required to collect their urine samples with paper cups in the rest room, and then place the paper cups on a specified bracket in the laboratory or transfer the urine samples into specified test tubes. After being collected in the laboratory and so on, the urine samples are analyzed in another laboratory.

[0004] In most cases, lots of urine samples are necessarily analyzed completely within one day. However, these opening paper cups disposed side by side occupy a large space until the completion of the analysis. Further, when being sent to the laboratory, the urine samples in the paper cups might be somewhat lost due to possible unintentional fall or tilting of the paper cups, thus causing environment pollution and waste of the urine samples. Moreover, the urine samples are collected by most tested subjects in a volume much higher than that as actually required, thus so many urine samples together smell badly, resulting in comfortability degradation of the working environment, as well as lowered working efficiency of doctors, nurses and other personnel for the urine analysis.

[0005] As can be seen from the above, the conventional urine collecting method is defective. For example, it is difficult for some tested subjects to excrete urine into the paper cup, thus sometimes excreting urine on the clothes or hands. Or, the outer wall of the test tube or fluid storage tube is stained by the urine when the urine is being transferred to the test tube, as a result, the stained test tube or fluid storage tube containing the urine cannot be directly put into a urine analysis instrument, instead the urine needs to be transferred again into a clean test tube or fluid storage tube. Therefore, the above-mentioned urine collecting method is defective in terms of sanitation.

[0006] Chinese utility model CN 201335785Y discloses a urine collecting instrument for urinalysis, which comprises a cup body with a cup mouth at the top part. A urine collecting funnel is inserted on the cup body; the pipe diameter of the lower end of the urine collecting funnel is matched with that of the cup mouth; a sealing cover is arranged at the top part of the urine collecting funnel; a through hole is formed on the inner wall of the urine collecting funnel; one end of the through hole is communicated with the inner cavity of the cup body, and the other end thereof is communicated with outside atmosphere; a smooth outer edge is arranged at the top part of the urine collecting funnel; the sealing cover is covered on the outer side of the outer edge; and a handle is also mounted on the urine collecting funnel. When urine is required to be collected, a large- caliber opening at the upper end of the urine collecting funnel facilitate urine collection of an inspector (esp. female); proper amount of urine can be collected in the cup body; and the top part of the urine collecting funnel is covered with the sealing cover, so as to prevent the circulation between the urine and air, so as not to be poured and split on the way to inspection or pollute the peripheral air environment.

[0007] Chinese utility model CN202994542U belongs to a medical appliance, and discloses a medical urine sampler. The medical urine sampler is in sealed connection with a neck tube at the upper end of a liquid storage cup via a thread; a liquid collection funnel is arranged at the upper end of the neck tube, and an umbrella-shaped protection cover is arranged at the middle part of the neck tube; the outer edge of the umbrella-shaped protection cover extends to the outer side of the liquid storage cup; and a transversal handle is further connected to the neck tube. The medical urine sampler is simple in structure, convenient and sanitary to operate, high in sampling efficiency, suitable for both men and women, and remarkable in practicability.

[0008] Chinese utility model CN203561531U discloses a novel urine sampling device for laboratory uses. The novel urine sampling device comprises an outer barrel. A sampling cup is sleeved in the outer barrel, a sampling cup attaching device allowing the sampling cup to be attached to the edge of the outer barrel is arranged on the upper portion of the sampling cup, and the bottom of the sampling cup is located inside the cavity of the outer barrel. The outer barrel prevents the sampling cup from being touch directly, and a splash guard prevents urine from splashing out, so that the novel urine sampling device is convenient to use and capable of effectively preventing the urine from splashing out.

[0009] Therefore, there is a need for a fluid collecting device, which has a simple design and structure and is convenient in operation, used for collecting and transferring urine into the designated container safely and conveniently without staining the outer wall of the test tube or fluid storage tube.

[0012] Preferred embodiments of the invention are set forth in the appended claims.

[0013] In the case where the fluid-taking piece is connected to the fluid storage tube by threads or rotatable snap, external threads are provided on the outer wall of the lower part of the fluid-taking piece, internal threads are provided on the inner wall of the opening of the fluid storage tube, and the fluid-taking piece is detachably connected with the fluid storage tube through threads.

[0014] In the case where the lower part of the fluid-taking piece is insertedly connected to the opening of the fluid storage tube, the lower part of the fluid-taking piece is insertedly connected to the opening of the fluid storage tube directly or through a sealing ring disposed between the lower part of the fluid-taking piece and the opening of the fluid storage tube, where the sealing ring is at least attached to the inner wall of the opening of the fluid storage tube and the top of the fluid storage tube, or the sealing ring may be mounted onto the opening of the fluid storage tube. During inserting, the lower part of the fluid-taking piece tightly matches with the sealing ring mounted onto the opening of the fluid storage tube.

[0015] For the inserting of the fluid-taking piece onto the fluid storage tube, the sealing ring is made of elastic material, so that the sealing ring not only has a function of sealing but also facilitates the inserting/removing of the fluid-taking piece onto/from the fluid storage tube.

[0016] Further, the shielding body includes a shielding side wall surrounding the fluid storage tube at an angle equal to or less than 360°. The shielding side wall functions to prevent the fluid storage tube from being stained by urine to the maximum extent.

[0017] When the shielding side wall surrounds the fluid storage tube at an angle of 0°, the shielding side wall has a flat shape.

[0018] When the shielding side wall surrounds the fluid storage tube at an angle less than 360°, the shielding side wall has a C shape.

[0019] When the shielding side wall surrounds the fluid storage tube at an angle equal to 360°, the shielding side wall has a tubular shape. The shielding body further includes a bottom plate provided to the bottom of the shielding side wall, and the bottom plate may be formed in one piece with the shielding side wall, or the bottom plate and the shielding side wall may be formed separately and then connected. When the bottom plate is formed in one piece with the shielding side wall, the shielding body has a cylindrical shape. When the bottom plate and the shielding side wall are formed separately and then connected, the shielding body may be formed in one piece with the fluid-taking piece, or the shielding body may be connected to the fluid-taking piece.

[0020] The shielding side wall may further surround the fluid storage tube at an angle larger than 360°, so that some of the shielding side wall overlaps.

[0021] The shielding body may be assembled by some components. For example, the shielding body includes a first component and a second component, which may be fixedly connected. The first component may be formed in one piece with the fluid-taking piece, or may be fixedly connected with the fluid-taking piece.

[0022] The shielding body may be fixedly connected with the fluid-taking piece by way of threads, clip snap, rotatable snap, fastening, interference fit, or magnetic adsorption, or may be formed in one piece with the fluid-taking piece. Alternatively, the shielding body may be fixedly connected to the fluid storage tube, for example, the fluid storage tube is directly inserted into the shielding body, or the shielding body is fixed to the fluid storage tube by way of threads, clip snap, rotatable snap, or magnetic adsorption. Alternatively, the shielding body may be fixedly connected to the connector by way of threads, clip snap, rotatable snap, or magnetic adsorption, for example. The shielding body may be formed in one piece with the connector.

[0023] In the case where the shielding body is fixedly connected to the fluid storage tube or the fluid-taking piece, the shielding body may be made of flexible material.

[0024] The shielding body has a tubular shape, a C shape or a flat shape. In the case where the shielding body is fixedly connected to the fluid-taking piece or the connector, a skidproof structure such as skidproof patterns may be provided on the lower part of the liquid storage tube, to facilitate the separation of the fluid storage tube from the connector.

[0025] There may be one or more (such as 1, 2, or 3) air exhaust openings of the air exhaust passages of the fluid-taking piece. In the case of a plurality of the air exhaust openings, the air exhaust openings may be arranged in different planes. The air exhaust opening and the liquid outlet may be arranged in the same plane or in different planes. Alternatively, at least one air exhaust opening is arranged in the same plane as the liquid outlet. The air exhaust opening may be located at the bottom of the liquid-taking piece, or the air exhaust opening may be located at the side surface of the air exhaust passage. Further, the disposable sealed body fluid retention device may further include a spacer extension located between the air exhaust opening and the liquid outlet. The spacer extension may be extended downwards from the spacer and formed in one piece with the spacer, or may be formed separately from the spacer, to prevent liquid leading to the liquid outlet from entering into the air exhaust opening.

[0026] The fluid storage tube may be a polygonal tube, for example, a pentagonal tube, a hexagonal tube or an octagonal tube. Alternatively, only the lower part of the fluid storage tube has a cross section of a polygonal shape. A skidproof structure may be provided at the lower part of the liquid storage tube. For example, longitudinal ribs, such as 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 ribs, are arranged on the outer wall of the lower part of the fluid storage tube. Alternatively, a plurality of protrusions, coarse surfaces or skidproof patterns are arranged on the outer wall of the lower part of the fluid storage tube, which is not limited herein. The skidproof structure is configured for easy holding of the liquid storage tube being separated from the fluid-taking piece and for easy applying of forces to separate the fluid-taking piece from the liquid storage tube.

[0027] Further, a liquid collecting plate, which is used for collecting urine into the fluid guiding passage and avoiding spurting of the urine to outside of the fluid-taking piece during the urine collecting process, is fixed to the top of the annular side wall of the fluid-taking piece. The fluid-taking piece includes a handle for holding by hand. The liquid collecting plate may be arranged at both sides of the handle of the fluid-taking piece, or at either side of the handle. Alternatively, the liquid collecting plate may be omitted. An anti-spurting layer may be disposed on the annular side wall of the fluid guiding passage or the spacer to effectively absorb the impact by the urine in the fluid-taking process, thereby eliminating urine spurted to the outside of the fluid-taking piece. The anti-spurting layer may be made of a material with a porous surface.

[0028] The body fluid retention device further includes a connector including an axial through hole, the lower part of the fluid-taking piece is detachably connected to the through hole of the connector, and the connector is detachably connected to the opening of the fluid storage tube. The lower part of the fluid-taking piece may be connected to the through hole of the connector by threads, rotatable snap, interference fit, fastening, or insertion, which is not limited herein. The connector may be detachably connected to the fluid storage tube by threads, rotatable snap, or insertion, which is not limited herein.

[0029] The connector is advantageous for simplifying the manufacturing of the fluid-taking piece. Particularly, the fluid-taking piece has been separated into two portions which match each other, to facilitate the manufacturing and assembling of the fluid-taking piece. Meanwhile, the connector is made of elastic material such as silicone, rubber and TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer), which is advantageous for sealing and each inserted connection between the connector and the opening of the fluid storage tube as well as between the connector and the lower part of the fluid-taking piece.

[0030] Further, the disposal sealed body fluid retention device further includes a plug part, which is configured to match with the through hole of the connector or the opening of the fluid storage tube after the fluid-taking piece is removed, to isolate the fluid storage cavity from the outside.

[0031] In the case where the connector is movably connected to the lower part of the fluid-taking piece, it is possible to merely remove the fluid-taking piece and maintain the connection between the connector and the fluid storage tube, and in this case, the plug part is mounted onto the through hole of the connector. Alternatively, it is possible to remove the connector along with removing the fluid-taking piece, and in this case, the plug part is mounted onto the opening of the fluid storage tube. Here, the plug part may be formed in one piece with the connector.

[0032] Further described herein is a convenient and sanitary method for collecting urine, including:

2) aligning the fluid-taking piece with an outlet where fluid leaks, to collect urine; and

3) pouring excessive urine in the fluid-taking piece after the fluid collecting process is completed, and separating the fluid-taking piece from the fluid storage tube, where the shielding body is removed along with the fluid-taking piece, and the fluid storage tube filled with urine is left.

[0033] A plug part may be further employed to match with the opening to isolate the urine in the fluid storage tube from the outside.

[0034] In the fluid collecting process of the present disclosure, the step of transferring the urine from the urine accommodating cup to the fluid storage tube or test tube is avoided, and the cleanness of the fluid storage tube is ensured and the fluid storage tube containing the urine can be directly used for testing by urine analyzer and test paper after the urine collecting process is completed, thereby improving working efficiency.

[0035] The present disposable sealed body fluid retention device is advantageous for sanitation. It is ensured that, after the fluid-taking piece and the shielding body are removed after the fluid collecting process is completed, the outer wall of the fluid storage tube remains clean without being stained, and the fluid storage tube can be directly used for testing by the urine analyzer and test paper.

[0140] The connector 7 may employ the structure described below in the present embodiment.

[0141] As shown in Figures 15, the connector 7 includes an axial through hole 70, the wall of which is provided with internal threads 74. An annular step 71 is provided along the outer wall of the connector 7 from the lower end face 72 of the connector 7, and includes a first annular side wall 75, a step surface 77 and a second annular side wall 76. The first annular side wall 75 is folded in a direction to the center of the connector 7 to form the step surface 77, the step surface 77 is folded downwards to form the second annular side wall 76, and the second annular side wall 76 is adjacent to the lower end face 72. External threads 73 are formed on the second annular side wall 76. A plug part 15 is disposed on the first annular side wall 75 of the connector 7, and may be formed in one piece with the connector 7.

[0142] As shown in Figures 16, the connector 7 includes an axial through hole 70, the wall of which is provided with internal threads 74. An annular step 71 is provided along the outer wall of the connector 7 from the lower end face 72 of the connector 7, and includes a first annular side wall 75, a step surface 77 and a second annular side wall 76. The first annular side wall 75 is folded in a direction to the center of the connector 7 to form the step surface 77, the step surface 77 is folded downwards to form the second annular side wall 76, and the second annular side wall 76 is adjacent to the lower end face 72. A plug part 15 is disposed on the first annular side wall 75 of the connector 7, and may be formed in one piece with the connector 7.

[0143] The through hole 70 shown in Figure 15 or 16 may not be provided with internal threads.

[0144] The connector 7 may be made of elastic material such as silicone, rubber and TPU (Thermo Plastic Urethane), to facilitate the connection and sealing between the opening 11 of the fluid storage tube 1 and the connector 7.

[0145] The liquid collecting plate 6 and the fluid-taking piece 2 may be fixedly connected in a manner as described below in the present embodiment.

[0146] The liquid collecting plate 6, which is used for collecting urine into the fluid guiding passage to avoid spurting of the urine to outside of the fluid-taking piece 2, is fixed to the top of the annular side wall 23 of the fluid-taking piece 2. The liquid collecting plate 6 may be arranged at both sides of the handle 33, or at either side of the handle 33. Alternatively, the liquid collecting plate 6 may be omitted.

[0147] An anti-spurting layer may be disposed on the fluid guiding passage 21 of the fluid-taking piece 2 to absorb the impact by the urine in the fluid-taking process, thereby eliminating urine spurted to the outside of the fluid-taking piece 2.

[0148] In the present embodiment, as shown in Figures 17 to 22, the external threads 73 on the outer wall of the lower part 30 of the fluid-taking piece cooperate with the internal threads 74 of the through hole 70, and the external threads 73 on the annular step 71 of the connector 7 cooperate with the internal threads 14 on the inner wall of the opening 11 of the fluid storage tube 1. In the case where the connector 7 employs the structure shown in Figure 16, the connector 7 is insertedly connected to the fluid storage tube, that is, the second annular side wall 76 of the annular step 71 of the connector 7 tightly cooperates with the inner wall of the opening of the fluid storage tube 1.

[0149] The lower part 30 of the fluid-taking piece is detachably connected with the through hole 70, that is, the external threads 31 on the lower part 30 of the fluid-taking piece cooperate with the internal threads 74 of the through hole 70. Alternatively, the lower part 30 of the fluid-taking piece may be fixedly connected with the through hole 70, for example, by the interference fit, fastening, insertion or adhesive (or by threads or thread adhesive) between the lower part 30 of the fluid-taking piece and the through hole 70. Both the air exhaust opening 26 and the liquid outlet 25 are in communication with the through hole 70. In the case where the lower part 30 of the fluid-taking piece is insertedly connected with the through hole 70, the wall of the through hole 70 of the connector 7 may be provided with or without internal threads.

[0150] To collect the urine, the fluid-taking piece 2 is aligned with an outlet where fluid such as urine leaks. After a certain amount of the urine has been collected, as shown in Figures 17 to 20, the handle 33 is held by one hand while the lower part 13 of the fluid storage tube is held by the other hand, the fluid-taking piece 2 and the shielding body 4 are removed, and the plug part 5 is placed to match with the through hole 70 of the connector 7, so that the fluid storage cavity 12 of the fluid storage tube 1 is isolated from the outside. As shown in Figures 31 and 32, after the fluid collecting process is completed, the handle 33 is held by one hand while the handle 44 is held by the other hand, and the shielding body 4 is separate from the fluid-taking piece 2, subsequently the fluid-taking piece is separated from the fluid storage tube, and finally the plug part is mounted onto the opening of the fluid storage tube.

[0151] In the present embodiment, when the fluid storage tube 1 is formed in one piece with the plug part 5, the connector may employ the structure as shown in Figure 24, in which the through hole 70 may be provided with or without internal threads 74. In the case where the through hole 70 is not provided with internal threads, the lower part 30 of the fluid-taking piece is insertedly connected with the through hole 70 of the connector 7. The second annular side wall 76 may be provided with or without external threads 73. In the case where the second annular side wall 76 is not provided with external threads, the opening 11 of the fluid storage tube 1 is insertedly connected with the annular step 71 of the connector 7.

Comparative examples

1. Comparison in the perspective of components and structures

[0152] In the present disclosure, there are two components, i.e. the fluid storage tube and the fluid-taking piece 2 with a shielding body.

[0153] During the urine collecting process, the fluid storage tube and the shielding body are connected as an integral structure.

[0154] After the urine collecting process is completed, the fluid storage tube is separated from the fluid-taking piece.

[0155] In the related art, there are two individual components, i.e. a urine accommodating cup and a fluid storage tube.

[0156] Conclusion: in the related art, operations are complicated, and the fluid storage tube might be stained by urine when the urine is being transferred to the fluid storage tube. Therefore, the present disclosure is advantageous in sanitation.

2. Comparison in the perspective of steps of fluid collecting process

[0157] In the present disclosure, there are three steps of collecting urine, removing the fluid-taking piece from the body fluid retention device, and mounting the plug part.

[0158] In the related art, there are five steps of collecting urine with a urine accommodating cup, taking a fluid storage tube, pouring the urine into the fluid storage tube, disposing the urine accommodating cup, and inserting a plug.

[0159] Conclusion: the present disclosure is advantageous for convenience compared with the related art.

3. Comparison in the perspective of time required for fluid collecting process

[0160] A testing method was conducted and evaluated by average time for fluid collecting by 50 people.

[0161] The average time is 21 seconds in the present disclosure while the average time is 33 seconds in the related art.

[0162] Conclusion: the time required for fluid taking is reduced to 64% of that in the related art, so that the convenience and speed is significantly improved compared with the related art.

4. Comparison in the perspective of spurting of urine during urine collecting process

[0163] In the present disclosure, because a liquid collecting plate and an anti-spurting layer are disposed on the fluid-taking piece, the spurting of urine is effectively prevented, meanwhile the urine in the fluid storage tube does not leak during the process of collecting urine and transferring the urine to the fluid storage tube.

[0164] In the related art, because of the small opening of the fluid storage tube and the shallow urine accommodating cap, the urine might be spurted onto the fluid storage tube in transferring the urine from the urine accommodating cup to the fluid storage tube.

5. Comparison in the perspective of sanitation of fluid storage tube during fluid collecting process

[0165] In the present disclosure, the fluid storage tube is protected by the annular shielding body at an angle of 360°, so that the sanitation of the fluid storage tube is fully ensured during the urine collecting process. Further, after the urine collecting process is completed, the fluid-taking piece is disposed along with the shielding body which is formed in one piece with the fluid-taking piece or fixedly connected with the fluid-taking piece, the cleanness and sanitation of the fluid storage tube is ensured.

[0166] In the related art, because no protection measure is taken in pouring the urine from the urine accommodating cup to the fluid storage tube, the urine is very likely poured onto the fluid storage tube, thereby staining the fluid storage tube.

[0167] Conclusion: the inventive device is advantageous in sanitation compared with the related art.
